What we know of the next Red Orchestra.

Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 is a great multiplayer shooter game that has been relying on digital distribution on steam for sales, and unlike your typical FPS, it has many realistic elements. The game was released on March 26, 2006 and currently holds a solid metascore of 81%, but what may surprise you is that there is a sequel currently in the making, Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad which will run on the Unreal Engine 3. In light of this, it would be a good idea to be familiar with the upcoming game’s features.

Why are PC Gamers paying $60 now?

                       "$100 buck? Damn, I guess I'm just getting the standard edition which is $5...WTF $60 bucks??

It all started when Activision had the audacity to start charging $60 for the PC version of Modern Warfare 2. Activision realized that after the success of Modern Warfare, they can pretty much charge any amount they please for the sequel and PC gamers would still flock to buy it. Of Course, if you’re into the multiplayer aspect of Modern Warfare 2, then the game comes packed with hundreds of hours of game play, so it’s safe to assume that Activision, somehow, got away with it, but when Assassin’s Creed 2, a single player game with absolutely no multiplayer and a horrible DRM that serves to punish legit buyers, is selling for $60 and the upcoming standard editions of Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3 are also selling for $60 too, things have gotten too far ,and we can see that a new trend is emerging.

Natal,Move? I'll just get the Novint Falcon.

With the upcoming release of Project Natal and Playstation Move, I’ve been wondering if such “advancements” in the gaming world have already been surpassed on the PC platform.  Sure, Natal and Move are set to redefine what it is to play games on the consoles, and that’s great and all, but let’s be serious, a device like Natal would not work well on the PC platform mainly because Natal needs 13 feet of space in order to work to its full potential and considering the relative distance between the monitor and the average PC gamer, that fact completely nullifies any chance we’ll see it on the PC anytime soon. Well, that’s where the Novint Falcon comes in.

Why you should start playing Age of Conan RIGHT NOW.

Most of you know Age of Conan as the MMORPG that, well, was unplayable at launch and the MMORPG that has both the unique combat system and the best graphics, but ultimately fell flat on its face because of the absolutely limited amount of content that rapidly declined as you progressed your way past level 20. Well I’m here to tell you that if there is one thing this game proves is that bad games on release DO, over time, get better. Funcom has released many updates that have altered the game, such as the addition of many instances and a whole region. In fact, a significant update was released a couple of days ago to improve the PVP aspect of the game, so, in light of this, I will be running down the reasons on why you should start playing this game right now!


There is a free trial available.

4 upcoming PC games that will most likely crush your current system.

Instead of touting what your state-of-the-art computer can do, we, here at Grand Theft PC, love playing the devil’s advocate so much that we will be celebrating what your computer cannot do. Indeed, one would start to think that the writer of this blog has gone mad and is writing complete jargon, however, that is not true, for it is imperative that my fellow PC gamers receive a healthy dose of a reality check. Thus, we will be listing the 4 upcoming games that will most likely crush your state-of-the-art system.
